Some of you asked me if my dad and brothers hunt for anything besides duck. Well, they hunt for many things including deer, rabbit and sometimes moose! My brother Mark tried alligator hunting for the first time this year. In this photo he is removing the skin from the alligator. I think this is probably the most disgusting picture I have ever seen! He lives in Florida, where there are a lot of alligators.
How exactly did he get this alligator? First of all, you hunt for alligators at night, and look for them in lakes. You can shine a spotlight into the water, like my brother did. He saw hundreds of alligator eyes staring out of the water! Eek! He was in a boat and he used a harpoon with a 25 foot tether. After he shot the harpoon into alligator, the alligator swam away. Luckily, there was a float with a light at the end of the tether, so they chased the light for about 45 minutes, until the alligator slowed down. Then they harpooned it again, shot it, and pulled it into the boat. My brother described what he did then:
"I carefully grabbed his snout with my hands and we taped his mouth shut. Back at the landing he measured 8 feet and his weight was estimated at 200-225 pounds (100kg)".
Would you ever eat alligator?
